SURGICAL CROWN LENGTHENING FOR FUNCTION AND ESTHETICS
Dental Clinics of North America, 1993Clinical crown lengthening is a useful procedure to provide tooth length for proper restoration of a tooth without compromising the periodontium or the retentive qualities of the restoration. It is also useful for enhancing maxillary anterior esthetics.

Compendium of continuing education in dentistry (Jamesburg, N.J. : 1995), 2000
Over the last 37 years, crown-lengthening procedures have been used predictably to restore teeth broken down from caries, trauma, and extensive wear. With crown lengthening, the dentogingival junction is "re-created" at a more apical level on the root to accommodate the junctional epithelium and the connective tissue attachment.

Restoring teeth following crown lengthening procedures
The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1991Crown lengthening procedures are often necessary to successfully restore teeth that have been mutilated at or below the level of the bone crest. Forced eruption is preferred to surgical removal of supporting alveolar bone, since forced eruption preserves the biologic width, maintains esthetics, and at the same time exposes sound tooth structure for the

Aesthetic Update
Ideal smile aesthetics includes ‘pink’ aesthetics and aesthetic crown lengthening surgery is an integral surgical procedure that is commonly used to achieve optimal overall aesthetics. Understanding the reasons for a ‘gummy’ smile, or gingival excess, is key.

Template for Surgical Crown Lengthening: Fabrication Technique
Journal of Prosthodontics, 1998This article describes a technique for the easy fabrication of a template to facilitate surgical lengthening of the clinical crown to enhance esthetics and/or increase retention of a fixed prosthesis. The use of this surgical guide should result in more predictable clinical results.

Immediate temporization crown lengthening.
Compendium of continuing education in dentistry (Jamesburg, N.J. : 1995), 2011The biologic width provides a tight seal around the tooth, protecting the periodontium from microbial injury and promoting periodontal health. However, clinical situations such as subgingival caries and crown-root fracture may compromise the biologic width dimension.

Orthodontic crown lengthening.
Journal (Indiana Dental Association), 1994As comprehensive dentistry becomes more complex, procedures must be developed to save teeth once considered unsuitable for crown restoration due to inaccessible finishing lines. Orthodontic crown lengthening is less invasive than a flap procedure and does not result in crestal bone reduction.

Esthetic Crown Lengthening: A Review
Journal of Dental Health and Oral ResearchEsthetic Crown lengthening involves surgical procedures utilized to increase clinical tooth crown height, address uneven gingival margins and excess gingival display and correct gingival overgrowth. Excessive gingival display known as “Gummy Smiles” can occur for a number of reasons including altered passive eruption, high lip line, hypermobile upper ...

A combination crown lengthening and implant placement guide
The Journal of Prosthetic DentistrySurgical procedures, including crown lengthening and implant placement, have become more predictable and less invasive because of the use of digital planning tools. A method combining a cone beam computed tomography and a digital scan with a virtual planning software program is described to fabricate a combination guide for both surgical esthetic crown

Crown lengthening: a clinical review.
Dental update, 1994The use of crown lengthening surgery as an adjunct to restorative therapy was first suggested by Rosen and Gitnick. This technique is designed to increase the clinical crown heights of teeth requiring restoration following extensive wear through attrition, abrasion and erosion.
